Comments:

Glad I ran low power... at least the amplifiers were spared the carnage....
FT1000 is now overheating, FT847 IF shift has gone berzerk, lost 15m on one
Dunestar filter, antenna bandswitch developed a short circuit, and the last
snow storm twisted the reflector on the lowest beam. Amazingly, when I slammed
my hand on the keyboard in frustration, it didn't break (the keyboard, not my
hand) and put me out of my misery, so slugged on through to the end of 24
hours. After 2200Z, if anyone sent their number three different times I gave up
asking for fills and took the average. I might use a bug next year for a little
payback.

We'll see if a similar score to my 2009 effort makes in the top ten box this
year.  Given the fantastic conditions, I have my doubts.

Yes, this is some people's idea of fun.

73 and thanks for the Q's de N7VM
